Emerson Research Dual-Alarm AM/FM Clock Radio with SmartSet Automatic Time Setting System ? CKS3029 Reviews
The FM tuner is also very weak. The volume is either inaudible or full blast. For $30 I expect a product to last longer than the 90 day warranty. I've had this clock over a year and while it has many nice features, it really fails on the basics. I would not buy another Emerson branded product. I called Emerson but they refursed to help me.
I bought 3 for the family to use, now I have to change it every time for my mother, thanks Emerson. I've heard so many different things to change this, but it comes down to me changing my clock an hour ahead or behind the night of DLS. It was great until like all have said the Day Light Savings change and now I see they are "out of stock" on Amazon. Hmmm.
I bought it for the power failure reset feature (not the DST feature). I think that they should state on the outside of the box the information about Arizona (and other areas) that do not observe DST. Great concept, just a tad weak in your executiondon't they ever give this to a consumer to try before they market it. Thus, with this clock, we are required to reset the clock whenever DST goes in or out. Why wouldn't you have a "non-DST" time zone in the unit. Luckily I can return this unit easily. I purchased this clock because it has "Smart Set." I guess it's not too smart if I need to reset it when we don't even observe DST.
If you happen to live in a DST area, I would avoid this product if you expect it to automatically adjust when most of the country switches to daylight savings. The product manual states that all "Daylight Savings and Leap Year adjustments are made automatically by the SmartSet internal computer." The Start of Daylight Savings Time is to be 1:59:49 AM on the first Sunday in April. Those dates no longer apply to the new daylight savings standard, so I would recommend looking elsewhere if you desire a clock that can work with the new daylight savings dates. The End of Daylight Savings Time is to be 2:59:59 AM on the last Sunday in October.
My power went off in the middle of the night last night, and I fell asleep peacefully after reminding myself that the clock would keep my alarm settings and reset itself when the power was restored. I've had this clock for two years, and bought one for my mother as well. It was, and the Emerson clock woke me up on schedule. This is a great product I only wish the smart set technology was in my coffee maker too. I used to have alarm failures constantly, but with dual weekend and weekday alarms, I haven't had to change a thing, and power blips (which we have constantly here) have never caused me to worry.
